Leaf blotch of Welsh onion was observed at a farmer's field at Kangnung in July 1990. Further collection o the diseased materials was made in 1993 and 1994. The symptom initially appeared as discolored spot and later yellowish blotch with the long axis parallel to the leaf veins, which turned to sooty colored concentric lesion due to heavy production of conidiophores and conidia. Cladosporium allii-cepae (Ranojevic) M. B. Ellis was repeatedly isolated from the leaf lesions. Healthy Welsh onion inoculated with conidial suspension of the fungus produced the typical symptom 10 days after inoculation. Koch's postulates were fulfilled by reisolation of the fungus. This is the first report of a Cladosporium leaf blotch of Welsh onion in Korea.

A species of Cladosporium isolated from Allium victorialis var. platyphyllum Makino differs from C. allii and C. allii-cepae by catenate, multiseptate conidia and aseptate conidiophores. Comparable Cladosporium spp. on other substrates are unknown. Therefore, this fungus must be considered as a new, undescribed species, viz. Cladosporium alliicola sp. nov.
